February Newsletter
We have had a great start to the 3rd quarter and the 2nd semester of the school year! We have a busy month ahead for students and families! We will be celebrating Black History Month in Social Studies classes across each grade level! We will be having Parent/Teacher Conference Nights, 5th Grade Parent Meeting, and our 6th Grade Parent Meeting for Camp Nuhop! Please check the dates/times below. We look forward to seeing everyone at conferences!
Reminder: Donate your old shoes to help the Avon High School Cross Country Teams. Please tie any laced shoes together. Donations are being accepted until February 15 and can be dropped off in the boxes near the lobby. If you have any questions please see Mrs. White in Rm. 231
Reminder: Students are not permitted to carry around medications with them at school. They must have a form filled out in the office and medication can be stored with our school nurse, Kristy.
We will be collecting canned foods for the "SouperBowl" in 1st period classes starting Feb. 6th - 10th. All proceeds will be going to CRS. Thank you for your support!
Lastly, our kitchen staff is in need of scanning student index fingers for the lunch database for when they purchase lunch. If you do not want your child's finger to be scanned, please notify Nancy Mazzeo 440-937-3049.
Be sure to check out the entire newsletter for important information on activities and dates for our students and families!
